Stop hoping and market your pool for the advantages you have before it's too late to get big miners to save this peanut gallery
Everyone missed my points and barked about old talking points I wasn't even mentioning.

** Do large pools like Slush give more % rewards to really big miners and screw the little guys or does Slush screw everyone over?  If some miners get kickbacks, then which ones don't?  Go get those to join you

** A temporary promotional shortened ramp up time would be this pool's 'kickback' to get those miners to join and stick around since they wouldn't want to then give up their ramp up by leaving and then have to go through the full ramp up to come back

Sitting around pointing at 'math even outs' or 'it ain't as bad as such and such' is the same kind of talk I got when I pointed out some issues with BTCGuild back in their hayday that they sat on their hands for months until I was proved right (totally different issue that you can go look up on these boards if anyone cares)

Anyone can do the math and see how much less you are getting paid when the blocks per month go to single digits.  It helps everyone, and especially you, to get that number back up to 20 or so expected per month
